We are inverted time wise, LOL! I was talking to a guy in Kenya about the same time, really spanned the World yesterday....

Yeah I know, one of us is up late, or early...It's good to be able to chat like that but sometimes makes for lack of sleep.
Understood, it is a nasty time difference; but fun information!
:)>Yes, and enjoyable chatting with a legit dude.
NOW we just need a solar powered rifle, LOL! I have been watching rail guns, maybe someday....
But the time difference is a mess.
:)>I could use a rail gun.
Did you know about these Aussie legends?

I have seen this design in a mini-gun configuration, in a trade Magazine.
I have wondered if a second charge half way down the barrel, ignited by the first charge as the round passed; would allow higher exit velocities and reduce recoil?
I want a rail gun too!
:)>Hmm, that is beyond my limited knowledge although from what I know recoil is quite limited due anyway. I'd have one. 🙂
Germany got extreme ballistics on an artillery piece, by staging powder charges along the length of the barrel. As the projectile passed, the charge exploded from the previous explosion. It was called the V-3 gun.

A single secondary charge in a rifle should provide the same boost in velocity they saw. Think what 3800 FPS with a 220 grain bullet could do....
